=head1 NAME

Data::Dump - Pretty printing of data structures

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Data::Dump qw(dump);

 $str = dump(@list)
 @copy_of_list = eval $str;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides a single function called dump() that takes a list
of values as its argument and produces a string as its result.  The string
contains Perl code that, when C<eval>ed, produces a deep copy of the
original arguments.  The string is formatted for easy reading.

If dump() is called in a void context, then the dump is printed on
STDERR instead of being returned.

If you don't like importing a function that overrides Perl's
not-so-useful builtin, then you can also import the same function as
pp(), mnemonic for "pretty-print".

=head1 HISTORY

The C<Data::Dump> module grew out of frustration with Sarathy's
in-most-cases-excellent C<Data::Dumper>.  Basic ideas and some code are shared
with Sarathy's module.

The C<Data::Dump> module provides a much simpler interface than
C<Data::Dumper>.  No OO interface is available and there are no
configuration options to worry about (yet :-).  The other benefit is
that the dump produced does not try to set any variables.  It only
returns what is needed to produce a copy of the arguments.  This means
that C<dump("foo")> simply returns C<"foo">, and C<dump(1..5)> simply
returns C<(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)>.
